Man beaten and bound in own home by robbers

A man was bound and beaten in his own home by robbers who stole cash and jewellery.


The homeowner, aged in his 50s, was attacked by two men in Dulwich, south London, in September.


One of them had a firearm which he tried to use but it did not work, leading police to believe it was an imitation.


The victim was hits on the head and his feet and wrists with tied with tape before being pushed into the downstairs toilet.


The thieves are believed to have fled with a large amount of cash, as well as electricals and jewellery.


The victim was eventually able to escape and alerted his neighbours, who called police


One of the suspects is described as being 'Middle Eastern European', of slight build, in his late teens or early 20s, with dark brown skin, black hair, a black beard and a thin pointed nose. He did not appear to speak a lot of English and was repeatedly heard to say: ?money, money, money?.


The second suspect is described as being an Asian man, possibly south-east Asian, of a stockier build, around 5ft 10in tall. He had short black hair and was wearing blue latex gloves.

This happened at 3.30pm i.e. broad daylight -in September and yet we are not informed until a MONTH later... pathetic- how are we supposed to take precautions when we don't know these things especially since we are not allowed to defend ourselves properly

Southwark police posted an appeal for witnesses on Twitter on 14 October.


I only know that via a post on my road's WhatsApp group.


It's possible that there were valid operational reasons for not publicising it before, but I don't know what they would be.


Does anybody know if they have caught the people involved?


Also, does anybody know how they got into the house?

    • I look out for them tomorrow over Horniman Gardens.  Separately our garden has been invaded by large birds, magpies, a jay or two, starlings, a couple of wood pigeons and less great and blue tits than usual, virtually no long tailed tits and only the occasional dunnock.  No blue tit nesting this year either..... Here's a lovely picture when the common redpolls visited a few weeks ago, feeding on sunflower chips with the goldfinches.  Note the home made anti-parakeet cage (from a squirrel proof feeder)  
    • Special Advisors aka SPADs didn't want the report published, I know as I have the contacts.  And that isn't Peter Walker.  It was published because it was leaked.  Look through the executive summary line by line and there are some positive views and some negative ones.  This therefore comes across as balanced; as all academic studies should be.  Sunak want to appeal to the motorists vote, and therefore Harper picks on the negatives.  The Guardian, LCC and the like pick on the positives.  That's the way the world works.  But as said government wanted it to be a hatchet job, and it wasn't.  I expect the LTNs to be still there in years to come.  Let's see how Starmer reacts now the ULEZ has got the thumbs up in the Mayoral elections.
    • I used a white floor paint, whether you keep redoing it depends on how bothered you are about scuffs, which I'm not 😂 I just pretend it's supposed to look like that 😂 I hoover it then mop it with Flash or something similar in a bucket. Some things have stained it in places, but obviously a white floor in a kitchen is liable to get stained. Sometimes I put rugs down if I want a change. You need to make sure the floorboards don't have gaps where water could get in and rot them. In the kitchen I originally had a concrete floor, so tongue and groove was put over it  (so no gaps between the boards, though it looks like floorboards) but my bathroom has actual floorboards which were painted white. I know people who have just used ordinary paint rather than floor paint, but I imagine it's not so hard-wearing. You could ask advice in a paint shop.
    • Oh Thanks can I ask what paints or other products you used and is it long lasting or do you have to keep redoing it?
